Licensing
How CodesGuard is licensed.
The principles behind a quote — so you and your partners can see how a configuration is put together. Pricing itself is handled by sales and tailored to your deployment.
Subscription, not perpetual
CodesGuard is licensed as a term subscription. Enterprise is contracted annually; shorter terms are available by arrangement.
Licensed by edition and scale
Your licence is defined by which modules you switch on and the scale you need — not by lines of code. There is no per-line metering.
Per workspace
A licence covers a workspace: its members, projects and the quotas that go with your edition. Enterprise can span multiple workspaces.
Cloud or on-premises
Run on our multi-tenant cloud, a dedicated tenant stack, or on-premises. The licensing principle is the same; the deployment differs.
Licensing, answered
The questions buyers ask
We don't publish prices — every configuration is different. For a quote tailored to your modules, scale and deployment, talk to sales.
Is CodesGuard licensed perpetually or as a subscription?
As a subscription. You license the platform for a term — annually for Enterprise — rather than buying a perpetual licence. This keeps advisory data, engine updates and support current for the life of the contract.
How is the licence calculated — users, repositories, lines of code?
By the modules you enable and the scale of your workspace: the number of projects, scans per month, members, concurrent scans, dynamic and AI-pentest runs, storage and result retention. There is no per-line-of-code or per-repository charge.
Are there different editions or licence levels?
Yes. Editions are bundles of modules: static and dependency analysis at the entry level, dynamic testing added above that, and autonomous AI pentesting plus runtime (IAST) testing at the Enterprise level — where single sign-on, a dedicated stack, longer retention and higher quotas also live.
For what term is a licence purchased?
Enterprise is contracted annually. Multi-year and shorter evaluation terms can be arranged with sales.
Do licensing terms differ for Cloud and On-Premises?
The licensing model is the same. What differs is deployment and operations: a shared-cloud workspace, a dedicated tenant stack, or an on-premises install where your team runs the infrastructure. Talk to sales about which fits your compliance needs.
Is technical support included in the licence?
Yes. Support is part of every edition and scales with it — community support at the entry level, priority support with a business SLA above it, and an enterprise SLA at the top. Formal response-time terms are part of the Enterprise agreement.
How are additional modules licensed?
Modules are the main lever. Turning on a module (for example adding dynamic testing or AI pentesting) moves you to the edition that includes it, and the licence reflects the new scope.
Can we expand the configuration during the contract?
Yes. You can raise quotas or add modules mid-term; the change folds into your contract. Historical results from any module stay readable even if scope changes.
How do renewals and extensions work?
Licences renew per term. Mid-term expansions and renewals are handled through your account, co-terminating with the existing contract where possible so you have a single renewal date.
